Interação entre Flurbiprofeno e Espironolactona + hidroclorotiazida

…following drugs or potassium sources may lead to severe hyperkalemia: • other potassium-sparing diuretics • ACE inhibitors • angiotensin II receptor antagonists • aldosterone blockers • non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), e.g., indomethacin • heparin and low molecular weight heparin • other drugs or conditions known to cause hyperkalemia • potassium supplements…

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs): In some patients, the administration of an NSAID can reduce the diuretic, natriuretic, and antihypertensive effects of loop, potassium-sparing, and thiazide diuretics.

Combination of NSAIDs, e.g., indomethacin, with potassium-sparing diuretics has been associated with severe hyperkalemia.

Therefore, when spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets and NSAIDs are used concomitantly, the patient should be observed closely to determine if the desired effect of the diuretic is obtained.

Patients at greatest risk of this reaction are those with impaired renal function, dehydration, hypovolemia, heart failure, liver dysfunction, those taking diuretics and ACE inhibitors or ARBs, and the elderly.

In patients who are elderly, volume-depleted (including those on diuretic therapy), or have renal impairment, coadministration of an NSAID with ACE inhibitors or ARBs may result in deterioration of renal function, including possible acute renal failure.

Diuretics Clinical Impact: Clinical studies, as well as post-marketing observations, showed that NSAIDs reduced the natriuretic effect of loop diuretics (e.g., furosemide) and thiazide diuretics in some patients.

Intervention: During concomitant use of flurbiprofen with diuretics, observe patients for signs of worsening renal function, in addition to assuring diuretic efficacy including antihypertensive effects [ see Warnings and Precautions (5) ].

Diuretics : NSAIDs can reduce natriuretic effect of furosemide and thiazide diuretics.
